On the Redhat 6.2 machine (retrofitted with glibc-2.2) the error is 
somewhat different:

Bootstrap comparison failure!
cxxmain.o differs
fold-const.o differs
real.o differs
tree.o differs
f/com.o differs

And on yet another machine (Debian unstable, Intel) which is setup
with up-to-the-minute .deb files (including binutils 2.11), I get no
bootstrap errors at all!
